Course Overview

The Bachelor of Arts course in Surana College offers a comprehensive study on a range of subjects related to Humanities. The course allows a flexible approach to studying humanities, social sciences and languages. Humanities deal with the histories, literatures and cultures of human civilisation, while social sciences study sociology, anthropology, political behaviours and other forms of human behaviour and organisation. This degree provides a rare chance to explore your passions, interests and ambitions. Students who complete this degree will be well suited to meet the challenges of a modern 21st-century workplace, where specialisation, creativity, logic and critical argument come to fore. It also enables you to become an independent thinker, to form and articulate judgements based on analysis and evidence. Studying Arts equips you for every aspect of life. Accordingly, our graduates are in demand from a broad range of employers, with career options as varied as the degree itself. Our alumni are invariably known for their ability to think outside the box, communicate effectively, research diligently, and synthesise complex information to reach their goals.

The entire Journalism fraternity relies heavily on skills related to communication, knowledge, quick reflexes, information gathering and assimilation.

Industry exposure is given to students through rigorous internship programmes in Media houses such as Print, Electronic Media and Radio.

BA – JOP (Journalism-Optional English-Psychology)

A very dynamic and challenging combination, apart from pursuing Masters in any of the three subjects, this stream offers several career options. Both Journalism and Psychology are vast subjects that allow students to explore their areas of interest. Career opportunities in Psychology are given a huge boost through internships in Manasa Neuropsychiatric Hospital, Cadabams' Psychosocial Rehabilitation Centre, Spastics Society of Karnataka, Spandana Nursing Home and others.
